// A Little More Intimate, Now Don't Be Shy //
Appearance:
Edison is a towering 6’3”, but only has his height going for him. His body mass is extremely skinny for various reasons, not enough sleep, stress, and a past of some drug abuse. He has a European like face and skin with sharp green eyes that are some what alluring, but more disturbing than anything. Atop his head he has shaggy brown hair that it always a mess since he cuts it himself, of course he doesn’t trust anyone near his head with a pair of scissors! It usually lays flat past his eyes or is gelled up.
Edison is no fashion guru and tends to stay away from the latest fashion trends and sticks to more 1800’s wear, high collars, suits, and ruffles galore. He decided that you either go all the way or don’t go at all, and it doesn’t seem to bother him when people stare.
Personality:
Edison has a darker demeanor, which leads into the speculation of him being slightly insane. When he is in public, or talks to new people, he is playful and talks in riddles. He likes to play odd games with people, like following them around or asking them out of the blue questions. He does have a serious side though, it is just hard to find between his playful antics and the polar expression, anger.
It doesn’t take much to anger Ed; it all just depends on the mood he is in that day. Anything from accidentally bumping into him or casting a nasty glance can send him off.
History:
Edison grew up in a normal human family in a rural Florida town with his sister; Sage. Even though he saw very few abnormals, he didn’t care for them and just wanted to live his life and they life theirs. Unfortunately, he became more mixed up in the abnormal life than he had wished.
On the way back from his eighteenth birthday party he heard an old woman calling for help. So he went to her aid, this was when he had a normal personality, and she turned out to be a demon rather than a human and felt like a snack. He blacked out during the whole incident, but had brief flash backs when coming to of another man who promised him something better. When he awoke again for real his head was pounding and all he knew was that he was hungry. For his species, they need a mentor to guide them during the change to keep them under control, but the man who had changed Edison had fled, probably thinking him dead.
So Ed went home, and the first person he encountered was his sister. He attacked her and nearly killed her. Thinking he had he fled from guilt and vowed never to return again. He wandered around the U.S for a few months, not stopping very long because his memories would overtake him. One day he made in to New York where someone offered him drugs to make the pain go away. He accepted and stayed in the streets stoned nearly twenty-four seven; liking the feeling it gave him.
One day when he was trying to scavenge some money off of people he encountered a grizzly old man who made fun of him for being a druggie. Edison got mad and sad that he didn’t understand what life was like, and the man responded with a smart remark saying he did then shifted his hand quickly. They were the same species, and the man took Edison under his wing.
The two trained and lived together for a few years. The two weren’t necessarily living by legal means of money and food, and during one of their raids the cops caught up to them. Unfortunately his master was shot down by police men who sent Edison into a furry. He killed the men without realizing it then fled once again from the city and into Wonder City where he lives now hiding from the government.
After his master’s death Ed took up much of his personality and his forms as well. He took the skills he gave him and made a small business where he finds people, items, and information for people that aren’t legal. He makes a good amount of money, but doesn’t flaunt his wealth very much and hands most of it away.
He and his sister were reunited at one of her ‘performances’ and he was a bit horrified for more than one reason. Their meeting didn’t change how he acted, but now he is very protective of the city because it is one of the places were he continues to have a peaceful life.
Species name:Hustrian
Appearance
These creatures are hard to identify, due to the fact that they can change their shape at will. These demons have one true form that they only use at desperate times or when their emotions become extreme. Their true forms are different from each being, but are usually something with no organs that can move its limbs in odd manners. Sometimes the forms are human looking, other times a Hustrian’s true form will be a shadowy animal. The form is not decided by the Hustrian, the gain their form when they are first infected with the disease. If the person knows what is happening to them, their last human thoughts inflict what form they have. If the person is unwillingly changed, their forms are messy looking and are based on what they feared the most in their human lives.
Most Hustrians chose to continue their lives as humans and act like nothing had happened, until they of course, out live everyone they know. Other Hustrians like to become animals and live as one until they die. A few amounts of the species likes to stay in their true form forever and go live away from human interaction.
Description
Hustrians are created by the bite of another Hustrian in their true form. Only humans can catch the disease, no other species can. There aren’t very many Hustrians in the world, seeing hoe most of the demons can control themselves from biting humans. When a Hustrian is first born, the creature that changed them has to stay and teach them how to live and the guidelines of the species. When the Hustrian doesn’t perform these duties the newborn demon goes on a short rampage, biting everyone in sight for a few hours. However, these newborns with no guidance usually kill the people they bite and they usually get themselves killed as well.
Once a human is changed to a Hustrian, they age much slower than humans. For every year they age in human years, they only gain a third of a year in Hustrian time lines. The average Hustrian lives about 200 years, but the lucky ones can be 300.
Hustrians usually do not find mates of their own species. They cannot bear children with animals, but they can with humans and other humanoid species. Most of them chose to change their mates into Hustrians when they are on the verge of death. Others often just get new mates after their first ones pass away.
Species Origin
The species can be traced back to Germany, around the present day state of Hessen. There forth, the prefix being Huss. According to legend, a demon came over from the demon realm and seduced a human female. He somehow fell for the mortal, and gave up his demonic qualities to be with her. Their children were the first Hustrians and spread the species from there.
Powers and Abilities
Hustrians can change their shape to match the form of other living things. To gain a shape, one must touch the thing they want to become. They gain the shape, size, and looks of the thing they touch, but none of their memories, or special abilities. If a Hustrian wants to gain the abilities of the creature they have to watch it and see how it acts. So a bird for example, the Hustrian must follow the bird around to learn how to fly and act correctly. However, the next time they change to a similar form, the easier it is to adjust.
A Hustrian’s true form also gives them some extended abilities. In each unique form, each Hustrian has different abilities. For Edison’s form, he has a few powers unique to him. His body turns into black ooze which things can become trapped in and absorbed by his body; He also has higher senses, and some strength.
Weaknesses
Hustrians can be killed just like humans can, by guns, and other weapons. They are less susceptible to diseases, yet they can still get most human ones. But they cannot be killed by drowning or poisons. Also, in their true shape they can only be killed by one weakness. That weakness is a precious secret to the Hustrian, and varies from each person. They can be severely injured and once out of their form killed. If they are hurt, each form they take is also injured.
